Loved this video prof! More in this series please so great as a new commander player!
This is undoubtedly my favorite ad read I have ever encountered and makes me love the product and ad more than one that would disingenuously push the product.
Many magic the gathering players say: WAY COOL! RELEVANT!
My good sir, your advertising prowess has effectively robbed my pockets of the currency contained within them... Ear buds are pretty dope though...
That ad was fantastic. Normally I dislike these sorts of ads, but yours was delightful. Reycon picked a great sponsor. As to the content of the video, I'd like to mention Elspeth, sun's champion for must run white cards. It's a board wipe and a wincon in one card. It's good when you're ahead, behind, and at parity. It's not only a must run in white, but one of the few planeswalkers good enough commander, generally.
Loved the sponsorship, possibly the best thing I have seen this year. I feel that Monastery Mentor or Eight and a Half Tails could have made the list, apart from that, spot on.

Great thumbnail. Crap, I'm not part of the target demographic, I can't watch this.
That sponsered ad was amazing. I personally run a Teshar deck, so I tend to be more based on comboing off than running interaction, but I still run most of these effects. Used to also have both versions of Oketra, a Kemba deck, and a Jareth deck.
You should totally do an updated version of this video. White’s come a long way over the past year or two. In my opinion, it’s pretty much fixed. The color could probably get a couple more tools in its arsenal, but it’s not really that bad anymore.
"Top 8 must have Commander cards in White" Wait. There's more than 4?
Ravnica At War is a nice one for me. With the text being “Exile all multicolored permanents.” for a 4 drop, this is a great late game move. Now that Ikoria is bringing the triome lands, this will do all sorts of damage for any multicolored deck.
BEST. SPONSOR. SPOT. EVER!!!!!!!!! Also, keep these "must have" lists coming. I'm pretty new to Commander, and they are a great help on what to look for.
This video was very fun! :D gave me stuff to think about when looking at tuning up my Nahiri deck to be actually competitive. Like. Adding in a *win condition*. I didn't even know that card existed! Which is probably part of why my deck has jank answers to things like *scourglass* lol. I look forward to the next video! Thank you for the wonderfully educational content :D
This video is awesome for the ad alone! Had my coworker wondering what the heck I was laughing at. I already have a pair of wireless earbuds, but I'd get the raycons if I needed one. I bow to thee, good sir!
That intro with the sponsorship was pure gold! Had me rolling.
I actually watched the ad bit through because of the presentation, so well done.
Great list of cards one needs to stay in the game when playing a colour that is arguably not the very best in EDH ... but even better was the Professor's delivery of the sponsorship message! XD
One of my favorite game changers is winds of abandon. You can exile one or overload like Cyclonic Rift.
that intro was your best to date! love it!
I normally skip the sponsored bit on videos... But honestly this was so much fun to watch! I really enjoyed your advertisement lol
That was hands down, the greatest in video sponsor ad ever. Can we just like, give him an award for just that?
I'm paused at about 2:10, and I can't stop smiling. The purposeful ching factor is just hight enuff that I want to get away from my computer but low enuff to appreciate what the proffer is doing. Advertising and Comedy quality is high, if not Gold here. Keep up the excellent work.
